'We have to concentrate on our game' - Darcie Greene previews FA Cup challenge

Leeds United Women defender Darcie Greene is eagerly anticipating her team's FA Cup Second Round tie against Norton & Stockton Ancients on Sunday. The Whites, who have been riding a ten-game winning streak against title rivals AFC Fylde Women, will be aiming to add another victory to their list. Greene emphasized the importance of maintaining their current winning form, stating that it is crucial to remain consistent and build the team's confidence.

The defender also noted that Norton, whom Leeds had previously faced during the league season, is a strong and challenging team to play against. Greene highlighted the excitement surrounding FA Cup matches, noting that winning not only advances the team to the next round but also provides a welcome break from league play and allows for the opportunity to face a different set of opponents.

Reflecting on her own performance this season, including scoring in last weekend's win over Durham Cestria, Greene expressed her commitment to continued growth and contributing to the team in any way possible. She also acknowledged the significance of the supporters, expressing gratitude for their attendance and the time and effort they invest in coming to watch the team.
